East restaurant – review

By: | 0 Comments | On: March 24, 2013 | Category : Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Savories, Thai, Vietnamese

This place is 2 minutes from my place of work but I’ve always avoided it like the plague because I wrongly thought that it serves fusion food and I absolutely HATE fusion! Thank God I was wrong because the food I had here was top-notched pan-Asian! We were here on...

        Tomorrow, February 10th, 2013 is Chinese New Year, the year of the snake! What does one do in a place where there isn’t even a Chinatown? No question, dimsum is the thing to do and Shogun (review) has the best!

mapo-tofu
Been wanting to try this place for a long time because of their homemade tofu. Finally had a chance with my friend who’s vegetarian! This resto has more vegetarian dishes than meat dishes and it’s Japanese / Chinese so take your pick! It’s a mom-and-pop joint and the owners are...

China’s Peking duck – review 2

By: | 0 Comments | On: September 4, 2012 | Category : Chinese, Savories

Slicing the duck
UPDATE 2013/3/05: The duck expert seems to have moved onto greener pastures as the duck at this resto is now average. Gone are the days of crispy, lean skin and here to stay is a fat duck with not much taste and the secret spice for the second course has...

Food obsessed

banh xeo (Vietnamese crepe)
I’m not kidding but I find myself becoming more and more obsessed about food the older I get! I’m spending more time in the kitchen now and I trawl the net for new recipes or ways I can improve old ones. It’s not uncommon for me to take a day...

We’re regulars now at China restaurant and the waitresses know me by name. This is because they have a great deal on Peking duck on Monday nights. I’ve heard that this restaurant is the most authentic in Stockholm and I’ve been meaning to try their à la carte menu. I...

We had planned for many culinary experiences, see London calling, but the best laid plans… Our first meal in London and I had been looking forward to eating here after reading all the positive reviews on Yelp. Unfortunately, the food was ok but nothing to rave about. I ordered half...

Pontus!Matsal review

By: | 0 Comments | On: April 3, 2012 | Category : Reviews, Savories

We took advantage of the Birdie nam nam, an early bird special where you get 50% off the food if you leave the table at 7:15pm. I just had to order the wagyu beef and it didn’t disappoint. Side-note: The misconception with wagyu cows is that they are given special...

Boy, that was the most fun we’ve had in a long time. Yes, the preparation and cooking and all logistics associated with being in such an event was a pain but it was soooo worth it even though we didn’t win! It was our first time and we didn’t really...
